This is basically a tape of sound effects, like an old "Sounds of A Sawmill" type of release. Cox introduces each segment and describes the sounds to follow, what they are and how they were recorded. It's a funny tape because you aren't going to get sound effects like this on your typical Audio Fidelity LP. These are sounds of a plastic swimming pool being jarred around, or sounds of a ruler scraping down a hallway. Various mics are used, though the fidelity is only about home taper standard. But it's a very personal listen, zooming into the artistic process of discovery which you often don't hear revealed, since most sound artists never tell you what their tricks are. Cox's descriptions are so staid that it makes the selections seem even more imaginative.
